"Excellent. Do not hesitate hiring this crew. They are hardworking professionals. They know plants too. I have a two-acre piece of property with at least 40 various sized gardens. They did all the weeding, mulching and edging. Pruning and removing all the debris. Plus many other chores…all in 3 days. Bobby made suggestions and safety recommendations that were greatly appreciated. I’m so impressed with this company. They will maintain the yard every month, keeping it looking beautiful. Don’t think twice about hiring them. Just do it!"

"I had a wonderful experience with Delfino construction. They have completely transformed my house and property with a new drainage system and sump pump rendering my basement to be DRY! Also a new septic tank and leech field along with beautiful rock walls and U shaped driveway. The knowledge and attention to detail made our whole experience very comforting we couldn’t be happier with the turnout. Thankyou so much!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.
